Hi there,

I upgraded my HTPC from XP to Win7 (32 bit) and copied my gbpvr.db3 and config files over. Everything seems to be working fine with my new install with one exception. When my recordings fire off the channels don't change. (using a USB-UIRT to a Motorola Cable box - recording with an HD-PVR) If I launch PVRX2 and use the guide to watch live TV it changes fine. Its only my recordings that don't change. (It records fine on whatever channel the cables box was left on) The log doesn't have any errors and indicates that the USB-UIRT is sending the correct IR codes to change it but the UIRT doesn't actually do anything. I deleted the Capture sources and re-added and re-configured them and I am still having this error.

Any ideas?

I recently changed out my PVR 150 and put the 1600. One thing that began failing is my external hard drive that is hooked up via esata. It fails in two areas: 1. If i were to turn on the harddrive after turning on the computer; 2. if gbpvr wakes up the computer from sleep (in other words, if i were to wake up from sleep, then no problem).

What i mean by fail is that it hangs the computer and i need to reset the system. I'm currently running windows XP and use S3 sleep mode.

I tried changing my drive to use usb, and the problem didn't go away.

Anyone have thoughts? Is it related to getting a new graphics card or just coincidence? I have windows 7--should I upgrade? Will that take care of the issue? (I've hesitated because of the laborious process of going from xp to 7)

I'm using a computer to run "ripped" DVD music concerts through a DENON AV receiver. The DVD's were ripped using Moyea Magic DVD ripper. The profile used to rip the DVD's is Video MPEG-2, Audio AC-3. I'm using ffdshow as the codec with the GB-PVR software. My question is this. I'm getting "rough" edges around people faces when there is movement. If its a still shot it looks fine, but if there is any movement it's not as clear as it should be. I have software that came with my DVD Blu-ray drive. If I run one of these videos files in this software it crystal clear. What do I need to do to get that quality through the GB-PVR software.

Can someone tell me how to set up and use the dual tuners on the PVR2250? And once it is set up, how do you watch one channel while recording another in GBPVR?

My IR beanbag blaster is coming up like this:


And in HIP I have this:


How do I get Hip to talk to this?

I think my beanbag came with my Avermedia card, which died.

The Wiki page here states that the LIRC homepage has a list of persons who will build a receiver if you don't want to build it ourselves. Can't find the list.

Does anyone know where I can find a basic general Serial Port IR receiver to purchase?

I'm gonna seperate the discussion from http://forums.gbpvr.com/showpost.php?p=3...tcount=191 and bring it over here.

If this uses the getTaskImage() method, is it possible to have this update the icon in the slick menu? I could put that on the to-do list...

hi there, i'm seeing a strange issue on tuning to my local abc channel. i realize the signal quality isn't that great on my antenna, but it never shows up on the scan list (i've tried 2 different tuner cards - an ati tv wonder 650 pci and an ati tv wonder 600 usb, but neither showed the channel, even on a manual scan of the frequency. it does show some quality / signal strength numbers but no channel shows up.) i tried the usb tuner on my laptop and the missing channel was found, so i copied over the tuning line into my desktop's scan.cache file, and under the mapping config page i was able to see the channel in the preview window and map it to my EPG channel. but when i start up the app normally and go to the channel, all i get is a black screen...

here's the log of it trying to tune in to the channel:

Hi !

it's been a long time since I came in with my newbies problems: everything was working just fine for years. Then I had this HardDisk crash... Installed version 1.47 and used a backup of my gbpvr.db3 file. The only thing that bothered me was the aspect ratio abberation (too large), that I corrected via ffdshow post processing. Would have prefered an internal solution.

When I choose slick skin, why is it still the blue background?

But not to get you confused, the log files included concern an installation on my other machine. Simply: no video no sound . A black screen and return to tv guide or menu. windows media center is installed and working well.

Another concern: m2ts files. Normal speed, no skipped frames, but, visible lines, as though it was in 320 lines.

thank you and do not hesitate to point me some articles that I may have missed.

My machine:

I7-920 8gig
windows 7 64 bits
Radeon HD 4350
Hauppauge hvr-1250

I also use k-lite codecs

Thank you!

Has anyone been able to disable Windows Media Center in Win 7 from launching with the MCE Remote, yet still allow that remote to be used with GB-PVR?

At the very least, disabling the MCE button (or whatever it's called) on the remote would be helpful.
